Are you a covenant keeper? Are you living your life by covenant, or simply by convenience? Are your covenants the basis for your decisions and the direction of your life?
It is common for us to pray for physical safety. In a dangerous world, that prayer makes sense and certainly is appropriate. However, I have come to even more fervently pray for something else-I pray continually for the strength to live true to my covenants. This provides spiritual protection. We should live wisely in protecting ourselves from physical harm; but, in reality, whether we live a long or short life upon this earth is of little consequence in the eternities. What really matters is how we live. Living the life of a covenant keeper is of highest value, as that is the only way for us to fulfill our eternal purpose.
In coming days, it will not be possible to survive spiritually without the guiding, directing, comforting, and constant influence of the Holy Ghost.
